it ivill thus be seen that the speed is autof matically changed from lowspeed to high speed and' this changing of the speeds is controlledreceiver.

VBy this arrangement of parts a flexible transmission or power from Ythedrive shaft to the load shaft is secured without the use of Yclutchmeans and there is no danger of stripping the gears or of twisting theshafts.

It' is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages andnovel features of our invention will ybe readily apparent.

We desire it to beA understood that ive may make changes in theconstruction and in the combination and arrangement of the severalparts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appendedclaims.

What We claim is l 1. In an apparatus of the class described, a drivingshaft, a driven shaft, gears on said shafts, a number of housingsrotatably vmounted on the driving shaft, a jack shaft carried by eaohhousing, gears on said jack shafts one Oear on each 'ack shaft meshingVwith the gear on the drivin@- shaft, a number of hollow shafts rotatablymounted on the driving shaft and having portions lo cated Within thehousings, a gear on eachV hollowV shaft meshing with the remainino' C Dgear en .themjack shaft, a gear at the outer end of each lil'leW-.shaftmeshing with the gear on the driven shaft, intchet means connecting thegears on the driven 4shaft to said shaft and means for resisting themovenient of the housings.

2. In an apparatus of the class described,

by the position of the valve in the signatures.

a driving shaft, a driven shaft, gears on said driven shaft, ratchetmeans connecting some of saidV gears with said shaft, housings rotatablymounted on the driving shaft, gears on s'aiddriving shaft, one of whichis located iii each'v housing, a jack shaft mounted inV each housinggears on saidV jackV shafts, one of ivlii'ch'engages with' the gearsV ontliedriving shaft, holioiv shafts rotatably mounted on the driving shaftand eachhavinv' one end extending into a housing a gear C D Y b? Vrotatably mounted on the Vdriving shaft,V

gears on said driving shaft, oneV of which is located in each housing, a)aok shaftV mounted in each housing, gears on said )ach shaft,

Vone of which engages with the gear on thev driving shaft, holloivshafts rotatably mounted on the driving shaft and each having one endextending into a housing, a gear on said end engaging with one'of thegears onthe jack shaft, a gear on the outer end of the holloiv shaftengaging with the gear on the driven shaft, a compressor shaft,compressor in ans connectedrthereivith and gears connecting thehousings, ratchet means connecting some of said gears with theccompressor shaft and valve means for regulating the Compressor means.
